That is fabulous!

I only wish I could portray a model so atmospherically...........................

That is supreme modelling at its best.

That's impressive, very impressive. See what I mean about the height of the waves, the white crests and streaks of foam. Superb.

Them seas are what really make it come to life - though the boats alone are spectacular.  By a strange coincidence, I was trying to remember the name of a TV series I used to watch at my Gran's in the 1970s about a RN Frigate.  A quick internet search brought up the answer - WARSHIP.  Remember it???  The opening credits are available on youtube and I was amazed at how the pointy bit dips into the sea at the front.  Never gave it a thought until then!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLZsDh0uR6A

How a modeller can create 'that' moment in this diorama is beyond me. I am absolutely astounded by the whole thing and how it 'lives''

Great Stuff, I bow to this modellers supreme skill........................

That model is simply fantastic, wow. I lift my hat to those who can produced so much scale realism and atmosphere. The man is a true artist, not just a modeller!
